50 Ways to Say I Love You – Literally

We all love to hear it said to us and truth be told most of the time we like saying or writing the words “I LOVE YOU” to the people that we most cherish in this World.  My hope for this article is that we can get a gigantic list of ways to say I love you in every possible language.  Why?  Well, why not?  It’s a big world out there and tons of languages that I am sure many of us have never even heard of.  Now, I’m not going to be able to verify that every single one is legit but hopefully you can help me keep this list as honest and helpful as possible.  If you can drop a link to a recording of how to say each as well as the actual way to write it that would be ideal (please leave a reply or comment below).  If nobody has any other ways to say I love you that’s fine we can start with my list of 50:
